Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's call the use the variables A and B to represent the number of pounds used for those types of coffee and set up a system of equations below to solve.

4.20A+5.50B=864.60

B=4A

Let's replace B in the first equation with 4A.

4.20A+5.50(4A)=864.60

Undo the parentheses.

4.20A+22A=864.60

Combine like terms.

26.2A=864.6

Divide both sides by 26.2

A=33

Therefore 33 pounds of type A coffee were used in this month's blend at Rachel's Coffee Shop.

Have a wonderful day! :D

What is Question I (if m<EBF = 117°, fine m<ABE)​
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

m∠ABE = 27°

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets look to the figure to solve the problem

- AC is a line

- Ray BF intersects the line AC at B

- Ray BF ⊥ line AC

∴ ∠ABF and ∠CBF are right angles

∴ m∠ABF = m∠CBF = 90°

- Rays BE and BD intersect the line AC at B

∵ m∠ABE = m∠DBE ⇒ have same symbol on the figure

∴ BE is the bisector of angle ABD

∵ m∠EBF = 117°

∵ m∠EBF = m∠ABE + m∠ABF

∵ m∠ABF = 90°

∴ 117° = m∠ABE + 90°

- Subtract 90 from both sides

∴ m∠ABE = 27°

A metallic spherical ball of radius 14 cm is being melted and recast it into spherical balls of radius 2 cm. How many spherical
mojhsa [17]

Volume of sphere = 4/3 x pi x r^3

Volume of large sphere:

4/3 x 3.14 x 14^3 = 11488.21 cubic cm

Volume of smaller sphere:

4/3 x 3.14 x 2^3 = 33.49 cubic cm

Number of small spheres = volume of large sphere/ volume of small sphere

11488.21 / 33.49 = 343.03

Round to 343 small spheres
